"Interspace" is a monumental spatial intervention created by Munich-born abstract artist Tilman in collaboration with Cora von Zezschwitz. Specially conceived for the M-17 Art Center in Kiev, Ukraine, in 2019, this project is a key iteration of the ongoing Infinite Village series. Rather than a traditional installation, the work acts as a targeted intervention that redefines the architectural experience of the center.

Artistic Vision & Technique

The project investigates the concept of "in-between space"—a physical and mental zone of passage. Using a vibrant yellow palette, the structure establishes a non-objective presence that addresses fundamental ways of seeing and perception.

The artists utilized what they term "poor materials"—including raw wood, fabrics, and foils. In this narrative approach, the materials are not merely formal elements but "meaningful annotations" that contrast with the gallery's existing architecture. By reducing the structure to these essential, humble materials, Tilman and von Zezschwitz invite viewers to investigate beyond the surface and engage with the spatiality of the environment.

Context & Significance

Tilman, who divides his practice between New York City and Italy, is deeply inspired by the traditions of Concrete Art and Minimalism. Interspace exemplifies his commitment to creating objects that interpret light and space while engaging the natural curiosity of the viewer. By transforming a utilitarian passage into a site of contemplative discovery, the project demonstrates how site-specific abstract art can activate the metaphysical potential of any environment.

Tilman 出生於德國慕尼黑，是一位抽象藝術家及策展人。他的作品涵蓋繪畫、建築環境，以及堆疊與分層的牆面與地面物件。他是義大利 Dolceacqua 的 Dolceacqua Arte Contemporanea (d.a.c.) 的創辦人及現任策展顧問，亦曾是比利時布魯塞爾當代非具象藝術中心 (CCNOA) 的創辦人及前任首席策展人。Tilman 目前居住並工作於紐約市及義大利 Dolceacqua。

教育

Tilman 於 1978 年畢業於慕尼黑應用科學與設計大學，並於 1981 至 1985 年間在慕尼黑視覺藝術學院師從 Günter Fruhtrunk 和 Hans Baschang。

技法

Tilman 創作多種美學物件，包括繪畫、素描、版畫、三維壁掛物、地面物件、地面與牆面結合物件及建築環境。他的繪畫融合多種媒材，包括油漆、漆料和蠟筆，並結合多種表面材質，如羊皮紙、MDF 和鋁材。他的三維壁掛物以 MDF 和鋁材製成，平貼於牆面，呈現主要的正面平面，同時創造超越該平面的新空間可能性。他在羊皮紙上的作品呈現類似的空間視覺安排，創造色彩與形態的構圖，與光線互動以重新組織視覺環境。他的技法探討觀看與感知的方式，促使觀者深入表面之下進行探索。

靈感

Tilman 受具象藝術與極簡主義傳統的啟發。他創作的物件運用形態與色彩來詮釋光與空間，激發觀者的好奇心。作為其視覺環境的積極參與者，他的天性好奇使他注意到公共空間中存在的形態、構圖、色彩及其他感官印象。這些具體的視覺元素在他心中轉化為新的非具象存在。隨後，他透過一種簡化的過程將這些發現的視覺元素轉譯為具體物件，剔除不必要的部分，讓其本質得以重新展現。
